I don't care if Webb is pro-gun or builds the damn things to sell on the streets.
His party rules the roost in DC and this is clearly a case of "Do as I say, not as I do". I don't think we can carry into ANY federal building ANYWHERE! And if he's so "pro-gun" what legislation has he introduced yet to expand gun rights on the Federal level? Can you say "suck-up"?
Webb probably told his boy to carry the bag in and that security wouldn't give him any hassle.

The hypocrisy of the liberals never ceases to amaze me.

I wonder if he knew he was carrying the senator's gun.

The real question is how many children were put at risk because Webb's staffer tried to smuggle a gun into the Capitol? As we learned with the Foley scandal, the safety of the Congressional Pages is the most important thing, and we need to know how many Pages were in danger because of what this Democratic staffer did. < /sarcasm>

The court ruled the ban unconstitutional but I thought there was a stay until the USSC weighed in?

Ok, when they say "gun" they literally mean "gun" right?...............This isn't one of those tawdry Webb metaphors?
To: george76
Webb should have to resign immediately and be replaced by George Allen.
To: AmericanMade1776
Carrying a handgun in the District of Columbia is against the law. So is this a "two-fer" crime? In other words, does the law in DC also define the complementary crimes of giving a handgun to someone who is not registered to possess or carry one, and giving ammunition to someone who is not registered to possess that ammunition? It takes two to tango, doesn't it?
If so, when can we expect to see Senator Webb, his partner in this "crime", brought to justice (or at least arrested and prosecuted)?

I share your concerns. Both Mr. Webb and his pet monkey are experienced and sophisticated in the rules on the Hill. Should we be concerned about an assassination, coup, gunfight coming from Congress?
Is Mr. Kennedy packing?
Is Mr. Kerry packing?
Is Mrs. Bill Clinton packing?
Why would they need guns on the Hill? It is one of the most secure places on earth.
Why would a Senator need an automatic weapon??
Does the Senator have other automatic weapons on the Hill today??

Carrying one INTO Congress is another story all together.Why? Wouldn't it be interesting if the next time Stevens, or Kennedy, or Byrd, have the idea of slipping some more bridge building pork for their state into a war funding bill, they look up into the gallery and have to wonder, "Is someone watching, with a gun?"

Politics aside, I fiercely support the 2nd Amendment. I would HATE to see any goverment official or elected representative prosecuted for carrying a gun. This would set a terrible precident and strike a blow against gun rights. I have no problem with anybody carrying a gun. Carrying one INTO Congress is another story all together.
Heh, on the other hand, sometimes I think that our elected officials should be required to carry guns into congress. The entire world would be glued to C-SPAN.

We'll drop the charges if the guy rolls over on Webb. :)

Webb made some verbal threats against the president a while back.
I wonder is he might want to make good on them, or is totally paranoid because of what he said, and the ramifications of saying same..

In my mind after what Webb wrote in his "novel," he would never have been a viable senate contender, much less elected to the office. Virginia citizens, what is wrong with you??
